oh they do... it's a topic well covered and need not be raised again frankly. i think were all tired of the hider/hoarder threads. buy what you want, when you can and move on to real news about what goodies have been found, etc. i've been living vicariously through your guys hunt stories as i'm not hunting ROC.
i stopped by gaithersburg k mart tonight to get dog food and they had a decent stock of figures however very little variety. they were also 6.99 or something like that. they must have had a dozen neo vipers. they have 1 dvd sets and 2 cobra 2 5 packs on what they call clearance at 24.00. i predict they will sit there till xmas at those prices.

I'm done with looking for Joes after I saw what is being offered next year....
WOW, they are stepping it up BIG TIME!!! No more purchases until next year. Seriously. They are coming out with a large % of the things I've been wanting for the last two years and I can wait until next year summer to really start looking again... |

And, it may be the Club exclusive, but I know a guy who will be EXTREMELY happy to have the chance at getting a Big Lob figure... it only took, what, 23 years? :-) Now if they just would make a Cool Breeze fig... |

not sure myself, i haven't paid much attention to the convention news this time.
i finally saw roc firefly and i have to say i was VERY tempted. he has soo much stuff with him. barbque just looks awful. the 12" roc figures look even worse than the ME figures.

The TRU Firefly is awesome...one of the best figures of the line. The weapons alone make it a good purchase. I don't mind the Barbque figure. I think the original was well done and even though the exclusive colors are a bit odd he makes for a good background troop builder...like a deck hand or something.

Just click on the links on the front page to see some of the line up for next year. You might also change your mind about picking up all those neo vipers in favor of the upcoming stuff in 2010.... |

Pit Commando is just so full of accessories you feel like you've ripped off Hasbro somehow :-) Firefly is great in that his uniform and look is kind of generic looking but not in a bad way... but I can easily see it being a troop builder/custom fodder. An army of Cobra Saboteurs? that's cool. |

ROC has repaints... look no further than the target exclusives. it's on it's way to more rehashes of characters than the 25th line as well.
don't get me wrong, some of the ROC figures look cool and without a doubt are packed to the hilt with kit. i just haven't found that one yet that i can't resist. i'm sure there will be one, or a couple but for now i've managed to save a good deal of money by choosing not to buy into the ROC line. it's only a matter of time before my kids get sucked in then i'm sure i'll be dragged along but for now my kids and myself are staunch 25th/me fans. anyone else get the video game? i just bought it for the boys last night. i haven't even had a chance to watch any of it yet. i'd play it but the kids would whoop up on me and well, no fun in that so i don't. nothing like having a 5yr old lap you in mario kart... real big slice of humble pie

no game yet. I'm still in the "dark ages" of only having a PS2. I plan on getting it soon but then I look at how fast PS2 games go to clearance. I picked up the Force Unleashed at Target last week for $10.
